Activities and mission

The mission of the Institute extends beyond education to include the facillitation of business relations between the state of Rheinland-Palatinate and Asia (especially China and Japan).


Currently the Institute benefits from a steady partnership with the Chinese province Fujian and the Japanese region Iwate. The Institute is also a partner in business consulting MSEs and global companies doing business in Asia. Fujian (Chinese: 福建; pinyin: ; Wade-Giles: Fu-chien; Postal System Pinyin: Fukien, Foukien; local transliteration Hokkien from Min Nan Hok-kiàn) is one of the provinces on the southeast coast of China. ... Iwate Prefecture (岩手県; Iwate-ken) is located in the Tohoku region on Honshu island, Japan. ...


Study abroad

Depending on the country module chosen students spend one year (5th and 6th semesters)

Graduates and employment opportunities

Graduates of the Institue are particularly well placed to assume management tasks invovling Asian markets. In the middle of the programme, a year of study and work in either China or Japan, depending on the student's choice of country module (see above), consolidates and expands on the the language skills and cultural knowledge already learned. This practical experience, along with voluntary internships in the vacations and a dissertation with a company results in a good number of our students receiving job offers before their studies are complete.
